Frieda Anderson

Frieda Anderson is an artist from Corinth, MS.  Her work is machine quilted and nature inspired. Every day she walks in her woods near her home with her dog George.  She gets her ideas from walking there. She discovered hand dyeing fabric 20 years ago, and she now works almost exclusively with her own hand dyed cotton and silks that are used in her quilts. She has been teaching since 2000 and made her first quilt in high school.  She doesn't have a certain style, but she does almost always make quilts with nature on them.  Frieda has over 30 exhibits, but she does sell her quilts on her website and gives tips on her blog.  I picked her because she just seemed simple and sweet.  Her work is really colorful and unique.
